Totally agreed. If anyone adopts any method of hiking, be it
ultralight or ultraheavy, and they are not having fun and are hiking
with no joy just because they are doing the "right" way, I highly
recomend rethinking his/her strategy.  Hiking can be soo much fun and
fill one with tremedous joy.  One man's leisurely stroll is another
man's death march.  There are 1 million ways to hike the PCT and all
of them are right.  If you are new to hiking, long-distance hiking,
thru-hiking, or whatever, I highly recomend figuring out what works
best for YOU. There are lots of ideas floating around on this list,a
nd they are all good recomendatons for someone.  ...but they may be
horrible for someone else.

Try to learn as much as you can from this list and others, but in the
end, you will just have to find what works for you.   ...try not
leave yourself in a position where you discover what does NOT work
for you on your thru-hike!!!

peace,
dude
